What was this dizziness?

[dottyaboutstripes]

I stood up after watching Wimbledon and stretched, suddenly I almost blacked out and landed in a heap on the sofa. It was not a fun experience.
Could this be linked to anaemia/low ferritin? My GP has given up - I was having testing every few months to see what was going on but they couldn't find a reason for it so they stopped checking it. My last ferritin check came back at 9 and the dr actually seemed pleased as it had gone up from 5....
Sigh

Do you low blood pressure? It's a classic sign. Just get up s l o w l y.

Not really - generally 105/65.
I think it was the stretch that made me almost pass out.

No medical expert here but have you got something trapped in your spinal chord? Worth trying a chiropractor??

I would get to a&e. If you have had dodgy bloods recently have you been checked for clots?
